She worked for the late President of Venezuela Rafael Caldera (1969-1974), the Embassy of Venezuela, Ashoka and 1718 Investments.

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to either Mental Health America, or to The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse. Clara would have benefitted from the services of either organization, so we hope that we may honor her name by helping someone else.

Her funeral service will take place at the Church of the Little Flower on January 17th, 2020 at 12 pm and a private burial will follow.
